What Bonnie does here for Flatbush, I’ll attempt within the sixth boro, starting here with the venerable Mary Whalen and
King Dorian (glad that’s not “durian“) before shifting to shorter wavelength in
Jo Selje and
Panagia Lady, here lightering onto (I think) JoAnne Reinauer III.
Continuing across the spectrum with Stolt Vanguard and sibling
Perseverence. Then
and Ever Refine and
the snarkiest Don Juan and
the Bermudian cargo shuttle Oleander and
Bro Albert.
For something my eyes register as indigo, violet, purple . . . I can’t guarantee you’ll agree . . . I had to go outatown, like back upstate to Newark and a foto from last summer of Grouper. Has she now begun her journey west?
All fotos . . . so far … Will Van Dorp.
But from shipjohn via Shipspotting . . . here’s that purple fleet down in Philly . . . like Purple Hays,
Big Daddy, and
Grape Ape. Many thanks shipjohn.

Purple and Yellow colours on your boats.
It’s for sure different and easy to find your ship back.
I like it.
Regards,
John.

Real great stuff and very creative! How do you keep all your photos organized, that’s what I want to know. The purple tug is the best, IMHO.

how ’bout lyre bird feathers for purple hays . . . . watch the whole 3 min video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjE0Kdfos4Y and if that bird ever gets close to a working harbor, amazing sounds will come.
